KCR got trapped in 12% reservation promise: D.Srinivas

Hyderabad: CLP leader in Telangana Legislative Council D Srinivas on Sunday ridiculed the promise made by Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao of giving 12 per cent reservation to Muslims and Scheduled Tribes in the State.

Addressing the TPCC’s State Minorities Convention here, Srinivas said that KCR got trapped by promising 12 per cent reservation to Muslims and STs. He said that the Congress Government gave 4% reservation to Muslims with great difficulties and legal complications.

Unfortunately for KCR, Narendra Modi is the Prime Minister of the country. Therefore, instead of facilitating 12% reservation the BJP Government will try to stop the ongoing 4% reservation. Warning that the Congress would launch serious agitation if the ongoing reservation is sabotaged, he said that 12% reservation for Muslims and STs was not possible. (INN)
